Facilities and services in MoveWell

The Centre for Movement and Wellbeing (MoveWell)

Our facilities and expertise at MoveWell serve the health and wellness needs of our university, civic and regional communities by enabling physiological, metabolic, psychological and cognitive measures and assessments.

Unique in Europe for its scale and breadth, the Centre provides access to interventional suites with facilities for strength and conditioning and cardiorespiratory exercise, a physiotherapy clinic and spaces for movement rehabilitation and mental health assessment and intervention.

This setting enables researchers and practitioners to discover, and better understand, the rehabilitation and movement needs of those recovering from ill-health, injury or living with chronic disease.

Our Physiotherapy Clinic houses 3-4 plinth treatment spaces for private consultations with our resident physiotherapy team.

The clinic also hosts student placements and offers an unparalleled hands-on training and professional development opportunity for students on our Physiotherapy and Clinical Exercise Physiology programs, to assess and treat patients from the local community who present with conditions requiring treatment or rehabilitation intervention.

Interventional research and research-informed practice are key priorities for the clinic and opportunities for collaboration are welcomed.
